My Work Camp was from 6.10-27.10.2018, the place was a small village called
Castelnaud-de Chapelle. We had a total of 11 people, the following nations were
represented: French, Tunisian, Turkey, Welsh, Cambodian and me from Germany.
Our main task in the first two weeks was to renovate a walkway section, where
we remove the stones there, level the floor, clean the stones, and renew with
cement. In the third week we were then divided into two groups. One group
cleaned more sections of the sidewalk while I was in the painting team and the
technical guide promoted me to the painting manager. I felt very well in the
role, as someone has finally recognized my leadership qualities.
In the free
time we mostly did something together, drove to the next bigger city to Sarlat
and visited many castles, as they are common in the region.
The time
was very nice, I learned in the three weeks, many new people and know me
better, I also speak a few words of French, which is really limited to only the
basics, but I can answer the French "how are you" and even ask how my
spouse partner is.
Still, I
have to say that three weeks is the perfect time for a work camp because, even
if you really get along, living together after a while will be exhausting, especially if the food is not enough for you,
of course I have understandings there It is extremely difficult to respond to
the personal wishes of the individual and then for nine people. The good thing
is that I've lost 6 Kg since my EVS, even though a successful day starts with a
kebap for me.
